EVAN ROOS (<strong>DHL</strong> STORMERS)<br />
PLAyERS’ PLAyER<br />
OF THE SEASON<br />
EVAN ROOS HAS COMPLETED<br />
A VODACOM URC AWARDS<br />
QUADRUPLE BY COLLECTING<br />
THE PLAYERS’ PLAYER OF THE<br />
SEASON<br />
The award is voted for by the<br />
competition’s captains and vicecaptains,<br />
with the <strong>DHL</strong> <strong>Stormers</strong><br />
number eight coming out on top<br />
in a poll that was conducted at the<br />
end of the regular season.<br />
Roos, 22, adds this latest accolade<br />
to a personal haul that already<br />
includes the prizes for <strong>Vodacom</strong><br />
Fans’ Player of the Season, Next-<br />
Gen Player of the Season and a<br />
place in the Dream Team.<br />
This is the final award to be<br />
announced and rounds off a<br />
successful showing from the <strong>DHL</strong><br />
<strong>Stormers</strong>, who also boast Top Try<br />
Scorer Leolin Zas and five Dream<br />
Team representatives.<br />
Roos will be looking to cap a<br />
memorable season by lifting the<br />
inaugural <strong>Vodacom</strong> URC title<br />
when the <strong>DHL</strong> <strong>Stormers</strong> host the<br />
<strong>Vodacom</strong> <strong>Bulls</strong> in the Grand Final<br />
on Saturday June 18.<br />
The back-row forward has had<br />
a stand-out campaign for the<br />
Cape Town outfit, proving himself<br />
a destructive ball carrier with<br />
more successful carries (126) and<br />
defenders beaten (49) than any<br />
other player in the competition over<br />
the 18 rounds of the regular season.<br />
He has carried that form into the<br />
play-offs, putting on a <strong>Vodacom</strong><br />
Man of the Match display as<br />
the <strong>DHL</strong> <strong>Stormers</strong> overcame<br />
Edinburgh Rugby in the Final Eight<br />
and scoring a try in their semi-final<br />
clash with Ulster.<br />
Roos’ <strong>Vodacom</strong> URC<br />
performances saw him earn<br />
a Springboks call-up over the<br />
weekend and he is on course to<br />
make his Test debut during next<br />
month’s home series against Wales.<br />
